I love NOLA music and Mac was as good as it got. Rest in peace, Mac. Thank God for the recordings

When I was a little kid, I used to have this dream where I and all of my stuff--clothes, toys, books, candy, records, bats and balls--everything I owned was all squeezed together like a three dimensional jig saw puzzle in a confined space like a railroad car or something. It wasn't a nightmare. It was a very comfortable dream. I felt as though I could stay that way forever.

There was a lengthy and active "Thriver" thread on the old Golf Review forum a few years back. An English poster whose user name I don't immediately recall--it may have been Edgy or something like that-- was highly positive about the concept and it caught on, at least for a bit. I play the TLess driver myself because I hate to hit up on the ball, playing it too far left, with a conventional driver. With a driver especially weighted to be swung like a fairway wood, I find mishits substantially reduced. The shorter shaft and extra loft do promote accuracy at a small expense in distance. I can still hit the driver a good way--230 yards give or take a few--and that's a long way to keep the ball straight. Consequently, a thriver / driving-iron two-club combo serves me much better than a conventional driver would. 235 into the jungle doesn't do anybody any good, right?
